Hot off the press: New Paper in ACS Nano!
The paper “Pushing the Limits on the Intestinal Crossing of Metal–Organic Frameworks: An Ex Vivo and In Vivo Detailed Study“, was published in ACS Nano.
Congratulations, Dr. Zhongrui Luo!
We have a new Doctor in the group! On September 29, N&N Group member Zhongrui Luo defended his PhD thesis “In vivo interactions between food availability and nanoparticles in Caenorhabditis elegans“. Congratulations to Luo and his supervisor Anna Laromaine!
Gerrit, Luo and Anna L attended an EMBO workshop about C.elegans
13 – 17 June 2018 | Barcelona
Gerrit Bredeck, Luo Zhongrui and Anna Laromaine participated in the worshop “C. elegans development, cell biology and gene expression” organized by EMBO. Gerrit and Luo presented posters about their research.
Zhongrui Luo presented a poster and Anna Laromaine gave a talk at the VI Spanish Worm Meeting in Valencia
Anna Laromaine and Zhongrui Luo attended last week the VI Spanish Worm Meeting in Valencia (Spain), a biennial gathering of the scientific communitiy working with C. elegans. This meeting covers a wide range of topics, including development, neurobiology, aging and disease, metabolism and new technologies applied to C. elegans.
Anna gave the talk on “Evaluation of albumin pre-coated SPIONS in cell culture and C. elegans“ (Laura González-Moragas, Si-Ming Yu, Maria Milla, Anna Roig, Anna Laromaine) on Friday 10th March.
Luo presented the poster “Evaluation of the nano-bio interactions between Au-NPs and Caenorhabditis elegans“ (Laura González-Moragas, Zhongrui Luo, Anna Roig, Anna Laromaine). It was his first time in Valencia and he really enjoyed the meeting!
Anna Laromaine and Zhongrui Luo participate in the VI Spanish Worm Meeting in Valencia
Anna and Luo will attend on 9th-10th March the VI Spanish Worm Meeting in Valencia (Spain).
Anna will give the talk on “Evaluation of albumin pre-coated SPIONS in cell culture and C. elegans“ on Friday, 10th March, at 9 am.
Luo will present the poster on “Evaluation of the nano-bio interactions between Au-NPs and Caenorhabditis elegans“ (Laura González-Moragas, Zhongrui Luo, Anna Roig, Anna Laromaine).
The Spanish Worm Meeting (SWM) is a biennial gathering of the scientific communitiy working with C. elegans. It covers a wide range of topics, including development, neurobiology, aging and disease, metabolism and new technologies applied to C. elegans.
In the website www.gusano.info you can find information about previous Spanish Worm Meetings and resources related to C. elegans (research groups, wormbase, wormbook, etc.).
We hope they enjoy the meeting!
We welcome the new Ph.D. Students into the N&N Group!
Today during the Group Meeting we welcomed the 5 new Ph.D. students that will start their Ph.D. thesis in the N&N Group! We hope you enjoy your stay with us!

The N&N group participates in the @NextGEM_eu project, for which we prepared this video explaining how we work with c.elegans. 🪱
👉 Dr. @PolAlonso1 explains how we use these nematodes and why they are useful for assessing biological effects.
